TRAINING AND DRILLS FOR THE LONG JUMP Track & Field and Athletics: #1 Sports site with latest training info for coaches and self-coached athletes or use the search tool on the right The running long jump is an event that demands perhaps the greatest amounts of raw athletic ability found in any of the contests that make up the sport of track and field. An elite performer in this event has to be able to exhibit world or near world class speed. He or she must be able to perform specific motor skills in such a rapid fashion that the individual would likely be an outstanding candidate for almost any of the other field events. Strength and flexibility are the protectors of the athlete competing in the long jump. Strength allows the individual to control and change the direction of the athlete's center of mass. Flexibility allows the athlete to perform without destroying the muscle, connective tissue and joint networks that are tasked with such great ballistic loads by this event.
